GoogleUpdatesGooglePlayBooks,AddsOCR-BasedSearchForScannedPages

This handy addition makes it possible for users to search through the original scanned pages of e-books downloaded and housed within the free app. There are a number of specialist e-books I use that are best loaded as scanned pages, rather than digitized text, and as such this feature is definitely something I'll appreciate.

But a word of warning: OCR-based search isn't as accurate as conventional digital text searching, and it's more than likely that the results put forward by Google Play Books could sometimes be off-target.
